yep, just let the boat push the board back on your feet. and carry on just as you would wth a wakeboard.

just like they have said, rest your feet on top of your board. when the boat starts pulling you, the board will go flat against your heels. from then on out, its like a wakeboard, just with a little more effort because you aren't strapped to the board.

We start with troll, slow boat, board flat long edge toward the boat, your heals near the board edge closest to the skater and on top of the board, on troll you push down witht he heel and the board flips up from the water pressure, board is now facing the boat like a wake board, get your feet comfy and call hit it - up ya go
